Part of the thrill of watching live TV is waiting to see who will mess up first. "Hot in Cleveland" star Jane Leeves knows that's what people are wondering about the show's second live episode, airing Wednesday (March 26) on TV Land.
In Zap2it's exclusive behind-the-scenes sneak peek at the big episode, Leeves tells the show's warm-up comedian, Michael Burger, that she thinks because the first live episode went so well, producers are trying to make her break by having her act alongside Dave Foley.
"I know why they've done this: Because they know I can't keep a straight face with Dave around, and they want me to crack up during the live show," Leeves says. "We're not going to try and make mistakes or anything but they're trying to load the bases."
